She took a peek at him and explained, “I wasn’t sure what your cravings were—I didn’t want to place

the wrong order because I can’t afford to waste my money.”

If it weren’t because of Skylar, Tobias would never show up at a fast-food retail chain. He asked the

waiter over to take his orders because he didn’t feel like getting into the long queue.

“What brings you to me today? Do you need someone to get rid of your physiological needs again?”

Since they were no longer on the campus, Skylar didn’t bother to hold back and paid no heed to her

choices of words anymore.

She pretended as though she was fine, but she was on pins and needles whenever she was around

him. Nevertheless, she had learned her lesson and figured a method to control her emotions.

“Isn’t it the same for you? After all, it had been quite a few days since we last met.” Tobias brought up

an embarrassing topic casually and made it sound as if it was nothing worth making a fuss out of it.

Even though Skylar could barely remain calm when she heard his out blunt reply, she tried her best to

suppress her emotion and asked, “Why are you here when you’re getting married tomorrow? I have

sinned and violated the ten commandments over and over again. Do you want to put me on an express

ride to hell? Why don’t you return to your loved ones if that’s what you’re here for?”

“Can you stop chasing me away? Are you afraid of me?” he replied indifferently because he felt slightly

helpless as well.

Skylar pursed her lips because she was at a loss for better words to reply to his query—he was spot

on, yet she couldn’t possibly blurt out the things she had in her mind.

She avoided his gaze and enjoyed her glass of coke that was full of ice, chomping the ice as though

she had forgotten the things she told Tobias about half an hour ago.

“Who will you be going out on a date with tonight?” Tobias peered straight into her eyes as he queried.

It sounded as though he was trying to interrogate her.

“Actually, there are quite a few handsome young men involved. I’ll think about it when I feel like it later

on.”

“Aren’t you heading out with your soon-to-be husband? Speaking of which, I should congratulate you

on getting everything sorted out within the span of a few days. You’re unbelievably swift.”

Skylar was taken aback by his words, but she knew it would be impossible to keep him in the darks. To

be blunt, he was the reason she had to go through the series of misfortunes over the past few days.

She narrowed her eyes and asked, “Are you the one who has sent him to propose to my aunt and

uncle? Why does the dowry have to be three hundred thousand? Are you trying to gloat over my

misfortune?”

Smirking, Tobias cast a contemptuous gaze at Skylar, indicating he was looking down upon her. “Are

you serious? Three hundred thousand is all it takes to win your uncle and aunt over? I wasn’t the one

behind this, though. Can you make use of the brain you have been blessed with? Why would I show up

in front of you if I’m trying to get rid of you?”

Skylar’s eyelashes quivered because she found his words logical. She received a text from her course

mate out of the blue. It was a text that urged her to submit the contribution fees for the activities that

would be held soon.

Each of them was required to contribute a hundred. She gritted her teeth and transferred the required

sum within a few minutes. After she was done, she got up from her seat and said, “I have to return to

the campus, Mr. Ford. Since you’re getting married tomorrow, I believe we won’t get to see one another

that frequently in the future. I don’t have anything for you to celebrate the joyous occasion. Why don’t

you take this cup of coke as your wedding gift from me? It’s all I have to offer.”

She felt awful deep down after saying her piece. In anticipation of his response, she glanced at him.

He finished her cup of coke using the straw that was crippled and assured her, “Actually, we’ll be

seeing each other quite frequently from today onwards. For instance, we’ll be spending a night in bed

together tonight. Give me a call after you’re done. I’ll drop by and pick you up, but please be hurry

because I can’t stay up late since I’m no longer young.”

Skylar lost herself, staring at Tobias as he finished her cup of coke because she was confused by his

words.

She thought Tobias would definitely be one of the tops in showbiz and put others to shame due to his

outstanding look if he were involved in the industry.
